Passionate about these little frogs that he is fishing at the end of winter, Lionel is a rancher and an ardent defender of the common red frog. This variety, which is more terrestrial than aquatic, is the flagship of gourmet palates in Franche Comté. By the tens of thousands, each year the frogs observe a ritual of their own: they lay their tadpoles and the young come back 3 years later to the same place to lay their eggs.
Form, look: it is one of the largest species of frog in our fauna, with a fairly stocky body. Its broad head and rounded snout and smooth skin goes from yellow or brown to grey, orange or reddish. And in the kitchen, no need to add cream or parsley, a simple country butter to confit it over a low heat will do wonders! and especially no freezing, the common frog is consumed in ultra fresh mode. Lionel confirms it, his frogs caught in the morning do not travel more than fifty kilometers to arrive a few hours later at his customers.
